             Due to the past advances in technology, the daily lives of people have become more convenient. Without the comforts of technology, most people would have no idea what to do or how to survive. During this short period of time, there have been many technological advances. Technological advances in machinery, transportation, and communication have given mankind a chance to live longer and more efficiently. Along with the benefits of technology, there are also some negative side effects. Has man become so dependent and slave-like to the innovative pleasures of these times?

             Technological advances have not always been involved in just the mechanical or communication aspects.

             In "Letter to President Pierce, 1855", Chief Seattle discusses how "There is no quiet place in the white man's cities," (678). People become so involved in the improvements of today that the simple parts of life are being ignored. This quote may have been from a significantly different time period, but it describes how man is so concerned about advancing in society and living life more comfortably that the little things in life have been neglected.
